Should he come through the clash with unknown Kristian Prenga with flying colours in Riyadh, it is on.

The all-British blockbuster is finally over the line at last, with details emerging day by day.

And Fury’s long-term promoter Warren has joined talkSPORT’s White&Jordan to discuss the deal.

He believes that the bout is being explored for October right now, and rates Wembley Stadium as the favourite.

“Tyson signed up for it months ago but AJ has now done it and we are on,” he said.

“It will be on some time in October by the looks of it. It is a great fight and we will see it at long last.

“Tyson may want another fight to keep him ticking over, we will see.

“I don’t see the fight going on until October. It will be to do the availability of the venue.

“I think Wembley is favourite to host it.”

Warren also added the bout will land on streaming service Netflix.

The news will come as welcome to British fans who want to see arguably the two biggest names in the sport duel on British shores.

Joshua’s comeback fight will first be in Saudi Arabia, and the deal will hinge upon that.

Warren – Fury is huge favourite to beat AJ

Fury and Joshua have always been in the eyes of many, inseparable with many backing each fighter to take victory.

They are now in the later stages of their careers and are not quite at their physical prime.

Warren believes the ‘Gypsy King’ is a huge favourite to get the job done.

He added: “It’s going to prove who is the best out of the two of them.

“I think Tyson will be a big, big favourite in this fight, and I think he will stop AJ.

“The difference is, Tyson was in two very close fights with Usyk, but Joshua got splattered by Dubois.”
